This will probably be like all of the Fast and Furious movies and will make a killing, but will suck

I don't know why they make these dumb remakes of 80s-90s movies. Most of them have the box office impact of a wet fart (RoboCop, Total Recall, Poltergeist, Footloose)
I've said it before, the studio would be better off spending the money on a deluxe Blu Ray version and trying to get Keanu Reeves and Gary Busey to do some interviews promoting it, instead of making a movie that no one sees.

any ways, yes that movie poster looks awful and i'm not typically critical.

i enjoyed point break, but have no interest in this being done.. however i am sure i will watch it at some point just out of curiosity.

the very first fast and furious totally ripped off point break.

Yep, and that's why it will never end.

This is frickin heresy. No other way to put it.

And if you're "cool" with this, you are not cool.

I hate that they're remaking this movie. Point Break is a classic that was only good because of the personalities of the actors in it. That can not be remade. The story is generic and script is bad, but we love it because of Keanu, Swayze, and Busey. There is no fricking reason to remake this movie. It doesn't need update special effects. It doesn't need to be touched.

I enjoyed the first one when I saw it but upon rewatching its not a very good movie.

The remake is going to suck, and hopefully will flop

How about the fact that they effectively replace the originals in culture. For example, every single time I see The Longest Yard on the channel guide, it's the Adam Sandler crapfest. Total Recall and Footloose - same thing, as it is with several others.


I guess you hate the Judy Garland version of Wizard of Oz too then ehh? Also, I guess remakes like The Italian Job, Little Shop of Horrors, King Kong, The Thing, The Fly, The Blob, The Mummy, Planet of the Apes, Ocean's Eleven, The Money Pit, The Man Who Knew Too Much, Cape Fear, Dawn of the Dead, Gone in 60 Seconds, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Heat, and Miracle on 34th Street are a bunch of bullshite too?

Fast and the Furious was the first 'remake' of Point Break. This cycle will never end.

Precisely. This was the movie in which Patrick Swayze just oozed movie star out of a pore of his body. It's not a good movie, but it was Swayze at the peak of his powers, Keanu being a solid lead, and Busey going full Busey.

I love the original and have no desire to see a remake.

Incorrect. It was this movie. Respect the 90s bro.

How could you leave out Anthony Keatis?

It's nothing short of spectacular.

Break.0 had a proven action cast. Don't really recognize the actors in this. The Director did Payback, which I sort of dug, but this looks like potential dog vomit.

I wonder what three new ideas got benched for another damn remake. If they wreck this I hope Swayze comes back & haunts them as Bodhi.

Looks like the original LBJ/Young Grommet makes a return to this version as an FBI so-and-so.

Original was in true sense a classic because of the awesome cast.

Hollywood is not in an "a-hole shortage". frick this remake.
